step 3 - add in another section of arc chrome slightly shorter than the last around 9 inchs

step 4 - add in another section of arc chrome slightly shorter than the last around 8 inchs

step 5 - keep going with shorter bits each piece being slightly thicker and shorter than the last

a nice body shape starts to shape up

step 6 - turn the fly over and add a short section underneath

step 7 whip off and take the fly out of the vice and with a perm marker add some stripes

finished stripes and ready for the head

step 8 - mix up a small amount of z poxy and place around the front section of the fly this will form a base for the fish gills

step 9 - when the z poxy is tacky add the fish gills

step 10 - you will still have a small amount of epoxy left this is great to place on top of the fish gill and then a 9mm eye on top then mix up another small amount of z poxy

step 11 - your now ready add the z poxy head the eyes and gills will now be set enough that they wont fall off or move

the finished product a fantastic easy to use baitfish that has a fantastic action in the water youll notice that ive used no flash in this fly this is because the arc chrome has a lovley shine in the water looking very like a real fish

the big and the small the top is the 6/0 the bottom is a slightly smaller version on a size 3/0
